Every Brilliant Thing is an exploration of all the wonderful things in this life that are worth living for...vinyl records, ice cream, and that perfect track #7 song. Starring Company Member Huy Nguyen, and directed by Co-Artistic Director Jacqueline Stone, this dance between the past, present, and our future, is told in joyful collaboration with each audience member. The show asks us to explore our own relationship with life and death, the things that make our families unique, and the bravery inside of change.
